  • Method and apparatus for reducing hot spot temperatures on stacked field windings
    Patent number: 6956313
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for a generator coil includes a plurality of stacked windings in a rotor where individual turns are stacked in parallel sided radial slots in the rotor. Each successive turn has the same width substantially corresponding to a constant width of each slot, wherein a first turn has a first thickness and a second turn has a second thickness thicker than said first thickness. The second turn is employed in regions of high temperature thereby reducing the temperature thereof.

  • Method and apparatus for measuring local heat transfer distribution on a surface
    Patent number: 6585408
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for measuring local heat transfer distribution of an object surface. The apparatus includes a heater element for providing heat flux, a member disposed on a surface of the heater element for receiving impinging cooling air. A liquid crystal element is provided on a side of the heater element remote from the surface, and an insulating material is disposed adjacent to the liquid crystal element and remote from the heater element. The apparatus further includes means for determining heat transfer distribution coefficients from the liquid crystal element.
